READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING
Read all safety instructions before using the product. Failure to follow these instructions may result
in fire, electrical shock, serious injury or death.
ANTI-TIP DEVICE
To reduce the risk of tipping the range,
the range must be secured by a properly
installed anti-tip bracket. See installation
instructions shipped with the bracket for
complete details before attempting to install.
For Free-Standing and Slide-In Ranges
To check if the bracket is installed and
engaged properly, look underneath the
range to see that the rear leveling leg is
engaged in the bracket. On some models, the storage drawer or kick panel
can be removed for easy inspection. If visual inspection is not possible,
slide the range forward, confirm the anti-tip bracket is securely attached to
the floor or wall, and slide the range back so the rear leveling leg is under
the anti-tip bracket.
If the range is pulled from the wall for any reason, always repeat this
procedure to verify the range is properly secured by the anti-tip bracket.
Never completely remove the leveling legs or the range will not be secured
to the anti-tip device properly.
• A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
• Install the anti-tip bracket to the wall or floor.
• Engage the range to the anti-tip bracket by sliding the
range back such that the foot is engaged.
• Re-engage the anti-tip bracket if the range is moved.
• Failure to do so can result in death or serious burns
to children or adults.

How Induction Surface Cooking Works
The elements beneath the cooking surface produce a
magnetic field that generates heat in ferrous metal pans
that are in close proximity.
The cooking surface itself does not heat. Heat is
produced in the cooking pan, and cannot be generated
until a pan is placed on the cooking surface.
When the element is activated, the pan begins to heat
immediately and in turn heats the contents of the pan.
Magnetic induction cooking requires the use of cookware
PDGHRIIHUURXVPHWDOV²PHWDOVWRZKLFKPDJQHWVZLOO
stick, such as iron or steel.
8VHSDQVWKDWILWWKHHOHPHQWVL]H7KHSDQPXVWEHODUJH
enough for the element to detect the pan and be able to
deliver full power.
The cooktop will not operate if a very small steel or iron
utensil, such as a steel spatula, cooking spoon, knife
or other small utensil, is placed on the cooking surface
when the unit is turned on.

Operating the Cooktop Elements
WARNING
FIRE HAZARD: Never leave the
range unattended with the cooktop on medium or
high settings. Keep flammable items away from the
cooktop. Turn off all controls when done cooking.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire,
serious injury or death.
Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with
CERAMA BRYTE

NOTE: The warming zone is NOT an induction element

Using the correct size cookware
Pans that are not ferrous or are too small will not allow
the induction elements to turn on, and the ON indicator
for that element location will flash for 25 seconds and
then turn off. If a pan is removed from or not centered on
the induction coil for more than 30 seconds, the power for
that element will be shut off.

less power at any given setting.
Cookware “Noise”
Slight sounds may be produced by different types
of cookware. Heavier pans such as enameled cast
iron produce less noise than a lighter weight multi-ply
stainless steel pan. The size of the pan, and the amount
of contents, can also contribute to the sound level.
When using adjacent elements that are set at certain power
level settings, magnetic fields may interact and produce
a low whistle or intermittent “hum”. These noises can be
reduced or eliminated by lowering or raising the power
level settings of one or both of the elements. Pans that
completely cover the element ring will produce less noise.
A low “humming” noise is normal particularly on high
settings.
Sounds you may here: You may hear a slight “Buzz”
when cooking with Hi mode. This is normal. The sound
depends on the type of pot being used. Some pots will
“Buzz” louder depending on the material. A “Buzz” sound
may be heard if the pan contents are cold. As the pan
heats, the sound will decrease. If the power level is
reduced, the sound level will go down.
Power Control
If a surface unit is on power level H (high), for an
extended period of time or if multiple surface units are
on, there may be a slight reduction in power to the
surface unit. Water under pans may also cause the
controls to reduce the power delivered to the cookware.

longer for multiple racks than what would be expected
for a single rack. To use this mode press the Conv Bake
pad, enter a temperature with number pads, and then
press Start/Enter.
Convection Roast
The Convection Roast mode is intended for roasting
whole cuts of meat on a single rack. This mode uses air
movement from the convection fan to improve browning
and reduce cooking time. Check food earlier than the
recipe suggested time when using this mode, or use the
probe (see the Probe section for more information). It is
not necessary to preheat when using this mode. To use
this mode press the Conv Roast pad, enter a temperature
with the number pads, and then press Start/Enter.
Proof
Proof mode maintains a warm environment for rising
